Fortnite Season 8 Week 3 Loading Screen Battle Star: Longbow Coming Soon?

Hot.

With the v8.20 update now out for Fortnite, we’ve had an early glimpse at the upcoming Loading Screens thanks to dataminers. Week 5’s Loading Screen is one of the most interesting ones yet, depicting Ember holding a new weapon that is sure to be added soon.

With what appears to be a longbow in hand, Ember is sat at the foot of the volcano that cropped up at the start of Season 8.

This just seems to further indicate that the new weapon is due, especially after the main image for Season 8 depicts Ember using the longbow as well.

You can expect this to drop next week for Week 6 at a conservative guess. Here’s hoping it doesn’t immediately go the way of the crossbow.

As for the Battle Star, it’s not exactly clear where it is in the Loading Screen, but a best guess suggests you will be able to find it near the highest lava waterfall on the volcano itself.

It’s also interesting that there appears to be a couple of blurred characters at the top of the volcano, who you have to assume are Peelys.

Don’t forget: you need to have completed all challenges to date to interact with this Battle Star or even see it. Once you’ve dusted off your challenges, simply head on over to the volcano and get yourself a free Battle Star.
